About this product
Product Information
Director Louis Malle tackled a social taboo and made 12-year-old Brooke Shields a star with this controversial examination of child prostitution in turn-of-the-century New Orleans. Violet (Shields) is the daughter of a prostitute (Susan Sarandon) who works at one of the brothels in New Orleans' legendary red-light district, Storyville. One day photographer Ernest Bellocq (Keith Carradine) arrives at the brothel to take photos of the prostitutes and becomes fascinated with Violet, who is fast approaching her 12th birthday and a subsequent initiation into prostitution. When her mother moves to St. Louis in search of marriage and respectability, Violet determines to marry the much older Bellocq. Malle infuses the potentially lurid subject matter with a lyrical beauty that brings humanity to his characters and story, with the assistance of a sensitive script by Polly Platt and superb cinematography by Sven Nykvist.Product Identifiers

Pretty Baby
Excellent movie. Some say it's racy for 12 year old Brooke Shields. That would have been true 40 years ago. Today, it's tame compared to some of the films released. Yeah, you see her nude in one scene and you see her partial bottom several times. However, nothing too intimate is shown. I didn't find it over the top. Besides the controversy, the film is a beautiful story of finding a home and feeling wanted. Brooke Shields is in my top 5 of greatest child actors of all time. 1 being Shirley Temple, 2 Dakota Fanning, 3 Kirsten Dunst and 4 Danica Mckellar.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
